Anti-immigrant, anti-euro Northern
League (LN) leader Matteo Salvini said Friday LN's "natural
alliance" was with the centre right featuring ex-premier Silvio
Berlusconi's Forza Italia (FI) party but that anti-establishment
5-Star Movement (M5S) leader Beppe Grillo was "welcome" after
saying there were too many migrants in Italy. The M5S's recent
swivel to a hardline stance on migrants and Roma gypsies has led
many commentators to suggest it might ally with LN at next
year's general election. The M5S has denied reports its guru
Davide Casaleggio met with Salvini to discuss a possible
alliance recently.
